I also live in Texas, and it's June now, and I am going to wait until October to test for my three-wheel endorsement. Thanks for this video - it helped.
Good plan 👍 It’s too hot now to ride 🥵
I took a similar course through a Company called “Balance Dynamics” in Walton, KY. These are a great introduction to a 3-wheel motorcycle. By no means are you going to be ready to hit the interstate after taking this course. This is simply to help you with the most basic skills so that can obtain your license (in a state that requires a separate license or endorsement). I continue to practice and expand on these skills before I consider hitting the interstate. I HIGHLY recommend a course like this for anyone not familiar with Can-Am bikes. It’s worth every penny.
I completely agree! I spent a lot of time in empty lot practicing after this course before I was ready to hit the road. The interstate came much later 🤣
So, it's a 3-part skills test:
1.) Emergency stop (5:12)
2.) Handling corners (4:49)
And what's the third part of the test? I assume swerving? I'm curious because I'm doing the riding part of the 3-wheel MSF class this Sunday (June 5, 2022), just did the classroom part (June 2nd).
I passed the regular 2-wheel motorcycle class last year and we were tested in 5 parts:
1.) Emergency stop
2.) Handling corners
3.) Swerving
4.) Cone weave
5.) Turn from a stop, and then a U-turn
Curious about the differences between the two classes before I take it. Thanks!
Yes, the 3rd is swerving 😄 You’ll have no problems
Enjoyed my course.
Great video. Thank you.
Than you, Bryan Hacker.
I really like your video man. I cannot wait to get my f3s spyder 😅
@THouse-md1hy Thank you! ☺️ So jealous! F3 would be my choice too if I have the budget for a Spyder 😅 I have a Ryker Rally 🏍️💨💨 Loves it❣️
Very informative...thanxs!
Do you have a Ryker or Spyder? 😀 What city?
@@urbandingo6882 Not yet. Looking at the RT Limited or Sea to Sky. Didn't know if I had to purchase the bike first. You answered that for me.
👍When you sign up for the course, ask what models they have. It would be great if you can ride different models to see what you like best 😁
@@urbandingo6882 sure will😁
I knew I recognized that mall is that Ingram or rolling oaks? if so what is the name of the place to attend this course ?
It’s at Rolling Oaks Mall 😃 I signed up via Can-Am education website. The classes fill up quickly, so check it out sooner rather than later 😉 Wave if you see me on the road 👋🏍💨
Thanks for sharing this, and please dont take offense, but if that's the course and test, it's super simple in terms of not requiring any real training that couldn't be acquired through practicing on your own. The skill level required for two wheels far exceeds those for 3. I've been a motorcycle rider for years, just got the Ryker for my wife, I don't think as a competent rider there is much need for this class. What am I missing?
If you are experienced in 2 wheel, practicing on your own may be adequate. But for those of us who have never ridden a motorcycle before, this is very much needed 🤣
Here in NY, the course is cheap and it is a great way to test drive the the Ryker/ Spyder and get the endorsement before making the purchase. If you decide to buy one, you get an insurance discount. I've seen this offered for as low as $99.
Same here in Texas! 😃 $99 is cheaper than renting a Ryker/Spyder for a day - great way to try it out before buying 😁
199@@toms6756 199.00 forthe test now...i am going on tuesday.
Here’s some good advice. Get an electric bicycle (or tricycle) with a throttle and get used to operating the throttle. Then go from there. I went from bicycle, to electric bicycle, to gas moped, and now I’m on a small motorcycle. And if you feel more comfy on 3 wheels that’s great - I just prefer 2
Somewhere near
How long does it take from getting the certification to getting it applied to your endorsement? Do you leave with your certificate, and go get it applied on the license the next day? Or do you have to wait on it to be mailed, etc?
I left the class with a certificate. In Texas, I made an appointment at DMV, showed them my certificate, paid, and got a new license with the endorsement on it the same day. So it depends on how quickly you can get to DMV😄🏍️💨
@@urbandingo6882 Thanks for responding! my class is in 2 weeks, and don't want to wait long afterwards to be out there on the road! huzzuh!
😀Check your DMV to see how far out they are scheduling appointments. If it’s a long wait, maybe you can make an appointment now for the day after your class 🤞
I got my 2 wheel license over the summer. I'm debating whether to get a 3 wheel license so that I can get a 3 wheel vehicle such as an arcimoto
I don't think u need the 3 wheel license if u already have the two wheel one. I have my 2 wheel license and that was enough for my trike in Texas
@@tatianagamez you do here in Washington State
I had to look up an Arcimoto. What a cute trike 😀 Have you driven one already? How was it?
I understand in California you don't need the certificate, is this true?
Apparently you are correct! 😃In California a class C license is enough to operate a 3 wheeled motorcycle (www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/handbook/motorcycle-handbook/license-requirements/). A motorcycle is so different from a car though, and you are so much more vulnerable to injury 😂 I would definitely encourage my California friends to take a class 😅
Just passed my class 2 weeks ago picking up my new rally 22 tomorrow
Congratulations! 😃🎊
Yea, you can drive a 3-wheeled motorcycle with just a regular driver's license in California. Also, in California, you can drive a motorcycle with an attached sidecar with only a regular driver's license. No motorcycle license required.
@@rustincohle2135 Thanks
Ayyyy that looks like rolling oaks
It is! 😃
Is this can-ams class and skill test or dmv's? Thanks.
This is a Can-Am class 😁
Do they do the class on Saturdays?
@@ericdomingo2235 It probably depends on your local class. Google "can-am rider education' and see if they have a link to a class near you. ☺
I'm from el paso tx where can I get my license
👋 from San Antonio 😃
Do I need to have the drivers license or they'll give me one once I pass the course? A 3 wheel license
Once you pass the course, they will issue you a certificate. You take that certificate to Texas Dept of Public Safety office (where they issue driver’s licenses) and exchange your driver’s license with one that has a 3 wheel endorsement on it. You will have to pay ~$45. No other test is needed to get this endorsement 😀
Last question sorry I don't have a driver's license only my texas ID
No problem 😉 I would think they would issue you a license that has a 3 wheel endorsement without a regular driver’s license. Please let me know if this is the case🤞🤞🤞
They go faster than 30mph
Yes Rykers have no problems on highway speeds. These ones used for training have some kind of governer on them that limits how fast they will go, so newbies can’t go too wrong with them 😆
Where was this course located at?
Hi, this was in San Antonio TX 😄
I found it through the Can-Am Rider Education Program 😁
This looks like Rolling Oaks Mall in San Antonio off of Loop 1604
I checked out the can am site and found a course offered in Houston at Mancuso Crossroads. Will taking this course this weekend and then wait till the 900 sport I ordered to come in.
Sharp eyes! Yes it’s at Rolling Oaks 😃 They make good use of this space 👍
